Flow-captor:
The flow-captor is a flow sensor for monitoring or measuring water, oil and other liquid media. This compact, electronic sensor works according to the calorimetric measuring principle without mechanically moving parts. It detects the flow velocity of the medium and converts it into an electrical signal. Due to its reliability and long-term stability the flow-captor has proven itself over several decades.
It is available with a large option to suit customer requirements.
- separate adjustment of range and set-point
- analog display of flow rate and limit value
- detection of lowest flow rates
- high easurement ace racy even under low flow con I ions
- large range of medium temperature
- high pressure resistance
- robust industrial design
- encapsulated electronics
- also for large pipe diams
- available with separate evaluation unit
- easy to install and simple handling
- certified according to DIKI EN ISO 9001 :2015
Applications:
Railway applications, air conditioning and ventillation systems, energy-saving installations, clean room technology

Foto-captor:
The foto-captor is a hot metal detector designed for harsh operating conditions, particularly in the steel industry. Wherever electrical switching commands can be triggered by the self-radiation of hot rolled material, photo-sensors have proven their worth under the toughest environmental conditions. Photo-sensors are available in various versions that differ in terms of minimum response temperature, optical data, housing design, and electrical data.
- interchangable lens and fibre optic cable (FOC)
- IR Test Circuit
- optical test of FOC
- simple to install
- remote mounting of electronics
- infrared test function
Applications:
Rolling mills, coke ovens, forges and foundries, refuse incinerators, blast furnaces, glassworks, general industry

Advanced sensing solutions by weber captor products:
Weber Sensors provides an extensive range of sensors for applications involving water-based media in automation processes. Their products are used in dosing systems, flow monitoring and measurement, water treatment, and pump dry-run protection, among others. They offer solutions for various pipe sizes, from large wastewater pipes to small diameters, tailored to customer requirements.
Automation technology is used in a wide range of industries, including the chemical and food industries, among others. Weber Sensors offers sensors with various electrical outputs that can be integrated into respective control processes. Operators of automated systems worldwide are convinced of the reliability and durability of their sensors.
Within the global steel industry, captor® products are widely used and suitable for various operating conditions. Wherever electrical switching commands are triggered by the self-radiation of hot rolled material, our foto-captors (static infrared switches) have proven themselves under the harshest environmental conditions. Our proxi-captor, an inductive proximity switch and meter for metal detection, also stands out for its robustness and reliability. Customized solutions according to customer requirements are available.
The protection of our environment is one of the most challenging tasks for everyone – it requires close collaboration between industry and research institutions. As an example, the flow-captor 4140.13 is used, among other things, for cooling circuit monitoring in wind turbines. Our vent-captors are also used in monitoring stations along highways with heavy traffic worldwide, continuously analyzing air quality by measuring the intake air volume. This data is then used to calculate pollutant levels.
In this industry, our sensors are used in some of the most renowned companies with applications such as transformer cooling, temperature monitoring, and air monitoring. The projects span sectors including hydroelectric power generation, renewable energy, aviation, railway, and automotive industries. As an example in the railway industry, the flow and temperature sensor is used in locomotives and rolling stock to monitor oil cooling circuits of power converters and transformers.
